first post

so...i know i am a few years behind with this "blog" thing, but i love the idea of having a way to share the joy of our family's journey with those who we know and love. and...i love the idea of my kids being able to look back at this someday and read about the crazy, but love-filled home they grew up in. no scheduled posts or commitments, but i hope to share stories, pictures, recipes, cupcake creations, jonah-isms, abbie-ettes, and soon to come...caleb-ations :-)

i realize as i have looked through pictures, that this is one of the only pictures i have with all five members of our family in it (thanks to http://www.facebook.com/AlleyCatPhotography) ...caleb is yet to make his debut, but he is there.

so...after looking a little harder, we do have one with all of us...

come back and read more soon!
